Racing Suit

RSS Feed

Purchased my Racing suit.Me in my Racing suit

All my gear was purchased from Revolution Racegear. I would definitely recommend Revolution, and Ricky as the guys to see for all your Race gear needs.

Racing suit is FIA rated Tier 1, which means i can use this suit to race in the V8 Developments, NZ V8’s and Mini Series.

Gloves are basic level gloves, not rated Tier 1 but still fire resistant to protect my hands.

Boots are Tier 1 boots made by Puma. Top level boots, very light and sturdy (no picture) .

Finally helmet is actually a Motorcycle hemlet, Matt black and grey design. It can be used in car racing and will still provide the protection I need in the event of a crash. Not that i plan for that to happen of course! However  cannot be used in Tier 1 Events such as NZV8’s.. (Thanks Ricky!)

Otherwise im very happy with the help i received when getting the gear from Ricky. He also hooked me up with a bag to store all my gear in..

I have created a new sponsorship page as well as a biography.. Its still in the making but feel free to have a read (links are on the right)

Thanks guys and i look forward to seeing everyone down at Pukekohe this weekend.. I’ll have my own commentary on the weekend and hopefully well get to see some excellent racing

Finally!

RSS Feed

Hey Guys, finally i have my blog back up and running.. I’ll be searching for all the content i had on my old blog to replace here..

First subject however, i’d like to let you know my progress on my MotorSport Career.

I signed up to a Club last week.. Paid my fees etc, now im in the progress of sourcing a car, some protective gear and and sitting my National Race Licence..

My National Race licence ill be sitting this Thursday, 7th Feb ‘08. It basically consists of a couple of things, 1 written test, 1 oral test.. ** HEY NOT LIKE THAT ** rude bastards.. lol

And a Medical. ** HEY WHAT DID I JUST SAY! ** ok thats it ill kick your ass if your laughing..

Its serious you guys.. Anyway, heres a peek at the test. Its pretty basic but goes over some very important rules to follow when racing.. Actually set down by the FIA, (Federation Internationale de l’Automobile) International Motorsport Federation. You break those rules and you in for fines and if its really bad, expulsion from the sport! OUCH..

Better be a good boy then i think ;)

Anyway for more information visit NZ Motorsport.

Or for more information on me visit my profile page.
